No rain - yet.
This morning, we went down to the bottom track and cleared off next doors (the nasty one) estevas that are causing problems when we drive past. That took 8 barrow loads - or was it 10? I lost count.
Back for breakfast, 3 machine loads of washing out and back in - not ironed yet - then moved all the furniture, vacuumed, mopped, with all the doors and windows open
Planted a lemon tree, tidied up around that area. Inspected cabbages and caulis for caterpillars - killed 4 of the blighters - checked if still too wet to weed - yes.
Grumpy decided to cut off the mimosa tree - which we have to by law, by Thursday, as it was over hanging a structure. That's now cut up and most of it is on the bonfire, ready for when we can - too wet as yet.
Just sat down for a quick mini - beer
- Sergio rang. He'll be with us about 4.00. Turned up at 3.00 
Odd for a Portuguese. But we now have English tele back So watching a film on Portuguese, as rubbish on the few English channels we can get.
We both ache, backs, knees. Grumpy is feeling rather tired. But as he won't listen to me, when I say, that'll do, the tree will still be there tomorrow................
We need to get either Alberto or Dimas up, with a chainsaw, to get rid pf the main trunk of the mimosa, then we can plant the other lemon.
All in all, rather pleased with today
Wasn't that hot, but so much tramping up and down hills - not used to it
